The Vintage Village

Where Vintage Never Gets Old...

Hi All.... :)

Ning has this cool gadget called Leader Boards where the Top contributors to VV are posted for ALL to see.

The focus of this application is to keep the community active and alive and to reward those who do just that!

From time to time I will hold various Contests for those of you who are the Top on the Boards.

This is a valuable way for YOU to be seen and your shop and your items .... :)  The key to good Social Networking... is well... to Network!!!! :) Even if you are adding a joke or a recipes or a link to a great article you found, you never know who is looking!

And then you also have something to add to FaceBook and Twitter and Pinterest!

Hope you enjoy this new feature!!!! :)

~Lora~

Here is how Ning determines what is "Top"

To determine which content or members qualify as top content or top members on your network, the Leaderboards feature uses an algorithm that is based on the number and quality of comments on a particular content item, the item's newness and number of shares, "Likes" and Google +1s it has obtained. Top Member status is based on this information as well as how active a member is on the network.

Along the same lines I also have added the LIKE or Thumbs up button to threads, pictures and groups as seen here on the left bottom corner...

And posts from staff and Carol Augustine /Ruby Lane don't count if they are top on the boards!!!! Sorry Carol!!!! lol ;)

So I have come up with the reward.... :)

If you are the Top Member on the Leader Board on April 15th, I will reward you by using your My Page as the actual AD I run on FaceBook for one week.

The Ad I targets over 5 million FaceBook Users so that should be some really good motivation!!! :)

That sounds like a great way to gain more exposure ! Thanks for offering this incentive Lora !

I updated the OP to include how Ning decides who and what is considered "Top"

Pawsome, Lora!!!  So....wonder who's going to be Top Dog?!...:)

woohoo...

This does sound great! But I am not sure I understand! I want to play for sure!!! Just hope I can understand.... ;)

Basically the more you socialize here the better. I naturally will talk like a magpie but it is good to finally get rewarded for it. 

Welcome newbies, add vintage items etc. 

Hi Laney... :)

The main thing we do here is promote folks who sell AVC items.

Members have the option to sign up for the Premium service and as a reward for being active here, which will be indicated by the Leader Boards, I will promote that Premium Member in a FaceBook Ad for free for a week sending anyone who clicks on the ad to their My Page as opposed to the entire site.  Only Premium Members can win as opposed to a member who is just a hobbyist and has no reason to be promoted... :)

I'm with you, Sandy, I don't need an incentive to be chatty, but it adds to the fun!

Thanks, Lora, for always bringing something fresh to TVV!

Social Networking is like the KING of promoting (if ya hadn't done noticed... lol ) and that is more or less what this is about.

I appreciate the folks who keep the site fun and active, so it's more of a thank you from my POV to the folks keeping the site flowing!
